(Washington Free Beacon) The executive board for the largest student union in the United Kingdom is under fire for joining the boycott campaign against Israel, after the council voted down a previous measure to condemn the Islamic State late last year.
The British National Union of Students’ National Executive Council (NUS-NEC) passed a resolution on Tuesday supporting the anti-Israel boycott, divestment, and sanctions movement, which seeks to socially and economically isolate the Jewish state.
The NUS-NEC opposed a motion last October denouncing the Islamic State, also known as ISIS, and supporting the Kurdish forces fighting the terror group, after some members argued the resolution was Islamophobic and warmongering.
